I’ve had a few people tell me of late that I should turn Sticky Note Reviews into a meme. Or a challenge. And, well, I just don’t know.

I felt that it was too important a topic to sleep on (both literally and figuratively) so I read it during my commute to and from work for a week (rest assured that I wasn’t driving).

In a world dominated by the brutal Vathek empire, eighteen-year-old Amani is a dreamer. She dreams of what life was … More Mirage | Sticky Note Reviews
